I started by giving treats, like sunflower seeds, through the bars of the cage. I think this made my bird feel safer, because I could not get her through the bars. Also, made be feel safer, because she could not get me.

After doing that a few times, I put my hand in her cage, and I held the treat at the very tips of my fingers, and she would take the treat.

I tried putting the treat further away, so she would have to jump on my had to retrieve the treat, but she just bit my hand. Still does if I try to do that.
